Animal Control, housed under HPDPS, works to
enforce all town ordinances pertaining to the care of animals within
the city limits. Concerns of animal abuse, loose animals, or any other animal concern may be reported 24 hours a day by contacting the Highland Park DPS Communications Center at 214-521-5000.

Pet Registration and Annual LicensePet registration and annual licensing is required for all animals three months of age and older.
Lost PetsIf you have lost a pet, please contact
the Highland Park DPS Communications Center to check if Animal Control
has impounded the animal. If the animal has not been impounded, we
will collect the pertinant information related to the lost pet and log
the information in the Communications Center. You may also call if you
have found an animal and want them picked up for impoundment. Prior to
impoundment we will attempt to locate the owner of the animal.

Impounded AnimalsThe Animal Control Department uses Medallion Animal Clinic
to board impounded animals picked up within the city limits. If you
have lost a pet, you may contact Medallion, at 214-369-4997, to check if
the animal has been impounded.

Live Animal Traps
Animal Control also has a limited amount of live animal traps available
for assisting residents who need them. You may request one by leaving
your contact information on the Animal Control voice mailbox at
214-559-9325. The Animal Control officer will
contact you and let you know if one is available and when it can be
delivered to you.
